Journey To The Inner

As the bringer of many fruits to come, the words spelled in a book will bring many ideas in my mind.
The first of many comes as a contrast to the message written above; it conflicts with the act of “thinking”, of using the mind. And so it starts:
The mind is a wonderful instrument if it is used correctly. However, if it is misused, then it can become destructive. It doesn’t matter in what percentage you misuse your mind, because, in general, you don’t use it at all. It uses you! This is a disease. You think you are your mind. It’s an illusion. The instrument has taken hold of you.
Now you might argue that this is not true. Than in fact you do use your mind, and that you use it to do useful things.
As dogs love to chew bones, the mind loves to solve problems.
Are you able to stop thinking? To actually not think of anything for 1,2,30 seconds, 1 minute? I mean really for your mind to go blank. I can’t, can you?
If you can’t then your mind is the one using you. You identify yourself with it unconsciously, so you don’t even realize that you are its slave.
The first step to solving a problem is becoming aware that we have a problem. If there’s no problem, there’s nothing to solve.
So for now I realize my mind is in control of me. The natural goal would be to take control of it. Until then my mind and your mind will continue to keep us in a never ending state of agitation.
